Hello fellow Traderjis,
Thus far I have made a few investments here and there, but have restricted myself to risk-free instruments. Now, I am contemplating investing in an index fund, and managing it by means of an online trading platform. I do not intend to be a day trader, but expect to trade slightly more frequently than a typical 'buy and hold' trader. I am looking for a platform that
1) is reliable (i.e. has little or no downtime),
2) makes all important information regarding my account easily accessible and has it presented in an intuitive format, and
3) is relatively inexpensive in terms of the total trading cost.
In addition to the above, if the platform constantly provides any news updates that could impact the SENSEX, it'd be a plus. Based on these criteria, could you'll make me a few recommendations? If you're not sure of the current trading costs associated with the different platforms, that's fine; I'll call the companies and check.
Thanks!
